MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. MORNING POST.—There was rather more business doing in the English Stock Market to-day, and an advance of per cent. was established on yesterday's quotations. The tran sactions, however, continue very limited. The Foreign Market remains in the same sluggish state that it has been in now for so many days past. A few bargains in Dutch and Portuguese Bonds are occasionally announced, but we hear of no business worth naming being done in other descriptions. The new Spanish loan, which has for some time engaged the attention of the Paris contractor, M. Aguado, and a firm here, would be so palpably injurious to the holders of the existing bonds that the project makes no sort of progress, and the latter interests are in the meanwhile nearly stationary at their late quotations. We are glad to see that in the oppo sition we have given to this nefarious scheme we are, with one single exception, joined by all the leading papers which have expressed their sentiments upon it, the Morning Chronicle being the only print that has ventured to give its sanction and support to the new creation. The Railway Share Market does not exhibit any symptoms of improvement, either as regards prices, or the amount of business transacted in it ; there was, however, some demand to-day for the Asphaltum shares of the different Companies ROW in the course of being established, and at generally rather Letter rates, though, upon the whole, the rage for speculation in these very questionable projects has evidently cooled, and we are by no means sorry to see it. In the advice, last received from the United States, an opinion is expressed that very few shipments of specie will be ordered from England for American Account, unless it be by the banks. The calculations upon which this opinion is founded arc as follow : " Bills of exchange on London have been sold recently at New York at 51 per cent. nominal premium. Bills at sight would have commanded 61, which is 3 per cent. below the true par measured by paper, and 61 below that par measured by specie, calculating specie at what is called II per cent. premium. The cost of importing specie may be estimated, at this season of the year, at 4 per cent. freight, and per cent. in surance ; and if per cent, be added for commission, it will stand the importer in 11 per cent. But the owner of a fund abroad, were he to send out orders for its transmission in specie, would have to wait for it 60 or 90 days, and would thereby lose the interest for that time, which would be 1 to 11 per cent, if estimated at the bank rate, or double that amount, it' the market rate •f interest be taken as the profit he could make upon his capital. He would also take into the ac count the possibility of the loss of the vessel on board of which his specie might be shipped, by which a disappointment in the receipt of Its funds would occur ; for, although he might be fully insured, he might not recover from the underwriters with the promptness which his pecuniary arrangements might require. This item might fairly be estimated at is per cent., and, if added to the freight, insurance, corn. mission, and loss of interest, would amout to 3/ per cent. Still there would bo a profit on the importation of specie if there were any cer tainty that ninety days hence there would be a premium upon it in the :New York Market. A resumption of specie payments before that pe.lod would de.Cat the speculation, and as such an event is highly pro b..bla it appers to us that nobody will order specie from Europe but the Banks which are said to have made some purchases of bills for that purpose." A periodical dcvoted to financial affair, states that the in ftexsble course pursued by the New York City Banks, of gradually reducing the amount of their immediate liabiliti es only conceivable process by which they can be prepared to resume specie payment:,) has brought up the value of their taper so near to the specie standard that there is every reason tai anticipate the preservation of their charters by a resumption before, or very soon after, the first of May next. MORNING CHRONICLE.-Letters from persons in Paris who halve the best means of obtaining correct information as to passing events, mention that r.:.gotiations for a loan to Spain have assumed a more favourable appearance, and that there is fa, - .ry expectation the matter will now be completed, on a b Isis which it is thought will meet the vie..vs of the old ere ditots of that country; for until that is effected it will he per fectly usekss for Spain to expect to get any advance of m. , rnent. We refrain, however, from making any detailed remarks while affairs remain in their present position ; but we rill probably return to the subject shortly. It continues to be much remarked that nothing is heard from il l , Directors of the British iron Mining Company as to the Mate of their affairs. To the pressing solicitations of nurner shareholders there is now added an advertisement in the n ,,,,capers, containing insinuations of a nature which the Director:, it is thought, should reply to by meeting their con sti uetits wil.,`'.nut delay. ,V.ouNixo Hanaco.—ln the commt:rci:il Money M,rket all these manifestations ,'`f indisposition for mercantile specula tik,e which we have late.:( noticed continue to prevail ; and, rotetithstantiin; the accrun:cr -abundancy of money, the indif ference of the dealers in Brills:a Sacur:ties continues ; at th same time it is proper to remark, Ihat more business for money st Eck in the British Funds has been effected to-day than in proportion to tha time dealings in our public securities. This ci!eumstance exhibi!s a want of cenfidei:ce in coming events u'on the part of those who usuilly are sensibly alien to the belAits of prospective speculation. There have been more dea'ings upon the northern 'portion cf the European Continent in the way of exchanges than al of late, and the prices have advanced. The principal cells , of this improvement may be ascribed to the speculation ,:•as lately been carried on between the chief cities of Unhand ,:nd the flanso Towns in Foreign Securities as well as in Dutr.n. Stock in th's market. On Amsterdam the rates have advaneee . to 12 5-1 al2 Ws. On Rotterdam at 12 5 a 12 si, and on 11.' mburg at 13 121. a 13 12)r. On Paris the rates rule a shade 10, , er, being quoted at 25f. 854 e. to 25f. 85e. It is pretty well .::nderstood that the Bank of England will forward shout 170,00 i in gold by the next packets, and that about tio,ooo/. will also go on merchants' account to the United States. 'Vanes.—ln the New York papers last received there is in- Serte,f. a letter from General Jackson to Mr. Dawson, written as idr hawk as December last, but no7r made public fur the Ar.t time, some passages from which are well deserving of quotation, bearing as they do most powerfully on the bank ing crisis row going on in America, and representing, of ccursr, if not guiding, the opinions of all his party. On the general questf l / 4 , n of the separation of the financial affairs of the country entir.aly from all management by banks, he obaerves_ " In relation to the aspest of public affairs,' which to some of our friends appears unfavourable to the hope of effecting an early se pare:ion of the fiscal operations of the Treasury from the agency of banks, state and national, I see nothing that should beget despair, or induce us to retrace our steps, or relax our exeetions. The re cent elections in New York manifest, it is true, some supineness on the part of those who have heretofore sustained the ascendaecy of the eld Jeffersonian principles; but they expose also the real objects and true charactor of the federal party, which is ever vigilaLt to seize any opportuoity that is presented for the recovery of the ground they lost in the establishment of the present Constitution, and in the memorable contest of 1798 and 1800. Such an opportunity was afforded in the present crisis, by the division of the Republi can ranks respecting the lowans which should be immediately adopted to increase the metallic basis of our circulating medium, and place the Government money, or ratleer the money of the people, in a state of proper security. If this division leas thus cost a defeat, may we not hope that it is but temporary, and that will bring us again, as it always done before, a solid and lasting victor, - -a victory Nv hlc h will be the result of enlightened co-operation and toncert on the part of all true Republicans, sacrificing all minor differences, and rallying, 3.1 one man, to the defence of the great principles which it is the design of the corn anon enemy, the federal party, to overthrow ?" Of the danger, in a political sense, of placing the treasure of the State in such hands as those of the American Banks, General Jackeon expresses a strong feeling. He says— " Atter the treachery of the bank: to the Government, it will be vain to suppose that the people can ever be Induced to acquiesce in their em ployment again as public depositaries. What security can we have that they will not always suspend payment when those who control and make money out of them will find it their interest to do so ? Let it be borne in mind that the recent suspen.lon occurred at a time of profound peace with all foreign natiovs, wh..no,nr exhaustless resources were all in successful operation, and then let us consider what would have bees the consequence if such an event had happened in a critical state of war. The banks in such an exigency would have hela' the sinews' of war without responsibility to the general Government. le`anaged as they now are by those who use them as instruments of profit, They we uld have been unable, even if willing, to meet the demands of the) publite necessity. Is it reasonable to suppose that the people can acquiesce in ti:‘• idea of trusting the public defence to such Corporations ? Rest assursed they never will, and those who are so unfortunate as to entertain that idea, will find that all their attempts to give effect to it are of no avail, except to aid the party which is anxious to defeat the republican will. " The truth is, Sir, that the separation of Bank and State was sup. peed to have been accomplished by the federal constitution as it now reach'. The union of the two at the close of the revolution was odious, and such will now be found to be sentiments of the great body of the American people, whenever the question is fairly submitted to their Judgment." This defence of himself for having employed the • State Banks during his late administration as the deposits for the lublic monies, which occupies a cons id era bl e portion of the etter, need not be dwelt upon. He well exposes, however, the arguments of the other party in making it the subject of an attack on the present Government that this expedient was once re4orted to :-- " But, aware that the Administration cannot be injured by the charge that confidence was once reposed in the State Banks, the raw-head and bloody bones of the purse and sword in the hands of the Executive are conjured up for political effect. There are none % who resort to this humbug who believe that the danger exists which t h 11 , so clamorously deprecate. Their only wish is to delude the le and obtain their sanction to the domination of Banks and their irreep onsible paper issues. They know th a t C ongress i s vested with te'e power to lay and collect taxes—t o ra i se arm i es, of which the Press 'lent is charged with the direction and with the execution of the l aw ._ that by law all money appropriated is speedily applied to the object of its a, propriation, and one cent. can no t b e d rawn f rom the T rea. surf but in put, suauce of law and on the warran t o f t h e S ecretary of the Treasury, countex signed by tie Treasurer and Fi rs t C on t ro ll er—that the President is bound L'T solemn oath to see the laws faithfully executed ; and that to every Congress the aecretary is bound to make an expose of all the disbursements, ',which is examined by Congress—that the Presi dent for failure of duty i s liable to impeachment. Away, then, with this raw-head and bloody-bones. It le Only a device to continue the usage t"taring the people for the hex,* IV Me banks, an effbrt to take the public revenue nut of the hands of responsible, to pfs.t iit Into the hands of irresponsible agents, who wilt use it to encourage 4,yep - issues _of paper money, and thus expose the Government .‘tad the people per *ually to the injuries we are now experiencing for the want of .0 stovic aae rency." . i.his view of the advantages of specic transactions by the Govea nment, as a means, probably the only one—of com pelling- the banks themselves to resume cash payments, is a very strafing one : If the revenul is received in gold and silver, it will force the hanks to resume specie payments, keep then;, , within the bounds of just banking principles, give the people a metallic curlVtcy or its fair equivalent, and put an enl to over trading and wild specu;ation, which save been so long the bane of our country, Is it nat. then, our duty to rally round ..'sch a measure, and are we not wrong in doubting the disposition of the p er , ole to sustain wh a t i s so manifest l y t h e i r i ntere st and welfare? In se; ar sting the Government from the banks, we secure to labour its fair and e odeviating tender of value; every honest pursuit is promoted , the Goarsrnrnent is relieved from th e p o litic a l intloene , eur the money power, legislation is purified, and the republican feelings of our citizens ' . are cherished. The Mint, for the support of which the peop!e Are taxed, will then be employed in its proper (ace, that pf eaining tho metals, which, In exchange for our profitable commodities, will steadily flow into oar land." This concluding passage is a forcible appeal to the country, politically speaking, in behalf of the pending measures, and is distinguished by the same sound patriotism which has accom panied him through the whole of his long career, and is by far the best point of the Government case against the Banks : " On this subject, Sir, I acknowledge that I feel the deepest interest. I am persuaded it is pregnant with consequences of the highest impor tance to our beloved country. If we are not now able to occupy the ground prepared for us by those who framed the Constitution, in respect to the influence of Banks and Monied Associations, I fear its recovery hereafter will cast the people difficulties and disasters, compared to which those that have been occasioned by the recent suspension of specie payments will be considered as nothing. The idea that in the event of war, if the Banks are again employed as public depositories, it will be in their power to stop payment, and thus deprive the nation of means of credit and support, is sufficient, in my judgment, to enlist the ardour of every patriot on the side of those who will refuse to commit so great a trust to any monied institution. All ex perience tells us that money is the sinew of war, and that no na. tion can long be free and independent which places this ele ment of its power in hands that are irresponsible in their very nature. Such would be our situation if the banks, as at present organ ised, retain the public money. They could much more easily in war than in peace find an excuse for refusing payment and violating their pledges to the Government ; and all who are conversant with history, must be aware that there are exigencies from which we are not exempt in a state of war, when the bankruptcy of our Government would force it to make a dishonourable peace, if it did not compel its submission to a foreign yoke. Looking at the subject in this light, I indulge the hope that all true Republicans will discard the idea of our again trusting the public money to banks. The plan proposed by Mr. Van Buren exposes us to no hazard. On the contrary, if adopted, it will simplify the opera. tions of cur revenue, purify legislation by removing from it the corrupt. ing influence of money, and insure peace, harmony, and prosperity to all the great and diversified interests of our country." The sudden fall in London and Birmingham shares yester day. has created a good deal of inquiry as to the cause, but nothing has yet transpired to account for it. The railway share-market has generally been depressed in consequence of it, although prices nominally have undergone little variation. London and Birmingham remain at Si to 83, after seine fur ther fluctuation downwards in the course of the day. FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. CORONATION OF HER MAJESTY.

The cause was tried before Lord Denman, when the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 40g. Mr. sergeant Andrews moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside and a new trial granted.—Rule refused. FRAMPTON V. CHAMPNETS, BART. This was an action on two promissory notes. The defence was, that the sl,fendant had been relieved from debt under the Insolvent Debtor's Act. The reply was, that no proper notice of the insolvent's intention to apply for his discharge had been given, nor had a proper description of the debt been in serted in the schedule. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. Sir W. Follett now applied for a rule to set aside the verdict and have a new trial. The Court granted the rule. THE QUEEN V. COTTON AND OTHERS. Mr. KELLY moved for a rule to set aside the certiorari in this case, and award a procedendo. The defendants had been indicted at the Quarter Sessions for a riot at the last election for the southern division of Cheshire, and had removed the indictment by certiorari, on the ground of being unable to obtain a fair trial in that county. The first defendant had put in sureties to appear ; the others had not ; and the ob ject of this motion was to secure their performing that condi tion of the rule on which they had obtained the certiorari.— Rule granted. Till QUIEN V. PARE. Mr. HUMFREY had to move that the defendant in this case, who was the other day convicted with Mr. Nluntz, at the Warwick Assizes, of an affray, might enter into his own re cognizances, and also that the justices might be directed to take his bail in the country, notwithstanding the observation and recommendation of the Learned Judge who tried the par ties that the proceedings should be carried no further ; the prosecutors appeared to be influenced by such feelings, that they ware pursuing the matter in the most oppressive manner possible. Mr. Pare had applied twice to be admitted to bail, and had tendered the most respectable parties as bail in the country, but the magistrates hail refused to take the bail with out a warrant. He should have to move that the verdict might be set aside, if his client should have notice that he was to be brought ep for judgment. Lord DENMAN—You do not desire that, unless you have notice of being brought up. Mr. HUMFRBY replied that he did not ; and he hoped they would not have any more of it. Rule Si s i granted. The defendant then entered into his own recognizances in Court. Mr. HUMFRET said their Lordships would allow him to move to set aside the verdict, if the defendant should be brought up for judgment. Lord DENMAN— Oh, certainly; we consider that as lodged. COURT OF COMMON PLEA S, APRIL 20. JACKSON AND ♦NOTIIER V. GALLOWAY. This was an action on a charter party, tried before the Lord Chief Justice Tindal at Guildhall. By the charter party, dated Dec. 2, 1834, a vessel called the City of Rochester was chartered upon a voyage from Cardiff to Alexandria, with a cargo of iron and coals, and it was stipulated that forty running da3s should be allowed to the defendants for loading at Cardiff and unloading at Alexandia, and ten days upon demurrage, at rate of 71. per day. The declaration charged the defen dants with having exceeded the allowed time, and the Jury re turned a verdict for 1701.—finding that the vessel had been detained twenty extra days, and allowed 71. per day for the first ten days, and 101. for the last. Mr. Sergeant TALPOURD applied to-day for a rule to show cause why that verdict should not be set aside and a new trial had. The LORD CHIEF JVISTICE thought that the Learned Coun sel might take a rule to show cause. MADDISON V. BACON. This was an action for money lent to recover 1,0001., which was tried here before the Lord Chief Justice, when a verdict was found for the defendant. The plaintiff, who was a Cap tain on hall.pay, and the defendants were clients of an attor ney named Hales, who actld also as their agent and banker. Mr. Hales beinz desirous of raising 10001. for the use of his brother, Doctor Hales, applied to the defendant for leave to borrow that sum on his credit, stating that he thought Cap taia Maddison would lend it to him. The defendant assented, and for that purpose gave Hales his acceptance to a bill for the amount, payable at six months. Subsequently Mr. Hales applied by a letter, which was not produced in evidence, to Mr. Maddison for a loan of 10001. on the security of the de fendant's bond. In answer to that application Mr. Maddison sent a check for 700/ , and on a subsequent day gave the re maining 3001., both of which sums were paid into Mr. Hales's bankers, and formed the fund with which the bill, accepted by the defendant, was at its maturity taken up. Afterwards Mr. Hales stated to the defendant that probably Mr. Maddison would never ask for the bond, and that if he would give him an I 0 U, he (Hales) could tell Mr. Maddison that he had the security. Accordingly the defendant signed an IOU to Mr. Hales for 1,0001. In that position the transaction re mained until Mr. Hales became a bankrupt, when Mr. Mad dison, on applying for his bond, discovered that no bond had been given. A correspondence ensued between the plaintiff and defendant, which resulted in the commencement of the present action. Mr. Sergeant WILDK applied now for a rule to show cause why a new trial should not he granted. Lord Chief JUSTICE—Take a rule to show cause. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, APRIL 20. WILLIASIS, ESQ., IL P., V. REES. Mr. WHATLEY moved fora rule to show cause why the judg ment should not be arrested in this case, which was tried before Mr. Baron Gurney at the last Assizes for Shropshire. It was an action for libel brought by the Member for Carnar von against the publisher of the Carnarvon and Denbigh Herald, in which a verdict had been found for the plaintiff, with Tool. damages. The Court granted the rule. WATSON V. MORRIS. This was an action upon a promissory note made by the de fendant in favour of the plaintiff, dated April 14, 1830, for 401., with interest, payable on demand. It was tried before Lord Abinger at the sittings in London after last term, and a verdict was found for the defendant. Mr. Sergeant Talfourd now moved to set aside that verdict, and to enter a verdict for the plaintiff, with 481. 10s. damages. The Court granted th e rule nisi. SHERIFF'S COURT, AralL 19. GUTTERIDOE V. HORNE AND OTHERS. The plaintiff, a guard of a coach, sought to recover from the defendants, the well known coach proprietors, of the Golden Cross, Charing-cross, the sum of 121., for twenty weeks' wages alleged to be due to him. The question in volved in this case was, whether the plaintiff was entitled to wages as a guard, and the decision was of consequence to the gentlemen of the whip. It appeared that he was engaged on the Liverpool Rocket coach for the period named in the de claration, and on his discharge was paid no wages. It was proved that it was not the practice to give salaries to guards and coachmen, and that they obtained their livelihood by " asking,s," and " takings," and by what was termed in stage phraseology "shouldering:" or " lifts" on the road. The plaintiff had expected wages, but several persons stated they would not be paid. Mr. C. JONES contended that the plaintiff was entitled to recover the sum in question. The Jury found for the plaintiff 12d., the amount claimed. The Court was crowded with professors of the whip. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH-STREET. A young man who gave the name of Wm. Burke, was charged with stealing a watch and appendages, the property of Mr. Mills. The prisoner, who declined saying anything in his de fence, was fully committed for trial. UNION-HALL. Yesterday Jane Smith, a young female of prepossessing ap pearance, was brought before Mr. Jeremy, charged with break ing into the house of Mr. John Berkshire, a respectable trades man of George-street, Blackfriars-road, and stealing three silver watches, thirty-three silver spoons, milk-jug, pepper casters, and various other articles of plate, besides fourteen gold rings, and several other aarticles of jewellery, and Mary Gunn, an elderly woman, was also placed at the bar, charged with receiving a portion of the property, knowing it to have been stolen. After evidence had been heard, both the pri soners were fully committed. The chateau of St. Leu, in which the Prince of Conde was found hanged, and which belongs to the Baroness de Feuchercs (Mrs. Dawes,) is to be sold by auction on the 6th of May.—National. At the Thames Police-office on Thursday, after the committal of Mary Anne Tobin and Eliza M'Donald, two well known smashers, or utterers of spurious coin, an appli cation was made to the sitting magistrate, Mr. Ballantine, by Lieutenant Lane, R.N., the Government emigration agent for the port of London, on behalf of some emigrants, against Mr. Michael Kelly, captain of the Thomas Carty, of Water ford, lying in the London Docks, for the sum of Is. per day for each person, beyond the time the vessel was stipulated to sail, at the time of contracting and paying for the passage to New York. The claim was made under a recent Act of. Par liament. The defence made was the unavoidable delay in get ting in water, &c. ; but the Act being imperative, the ma gistrate expressed himself as entertaining no doubt on the case, and would have convicted, but for a pro forma objection that a written information should have been laid, as in other case s where penalties are sought to be recovered. Lieutenant L an e, however, expressed his intention of bringing the matter before the bench in the proper way, unless in the interim some compensation or settlement were come to. Yesterday a race was to take place at the Bois de Boulogne, between M. Lupin's Memnon, and M. Lanterre's Esmeralda. Esmeralda was ridden by Olivier, the first of our jockeys. At the moment Esmeralda had reached her utmost speed a man on horseback entered the alley, turned on the side of the jockeys, and went and struck against Olivier, be fore either had time to avoid the shock. Both horses fell dead on the spot ; the lam was also killed. As for Olivier, his skull was opened above the eyebrow. Dr. Fitzpatrick, who happened to be present, bled him immediately, and no appre hension is entertained for his life.—Paris Paper of Wed nesday. A most awful instance of sudden death occurred at Sudbury on the 12th instant. E. Allen, Esq., of Ballingdon Grove, merchant, was spending the evening at the Swan Inn, when be suddenly exclaimed " How unwell I feel !" and dropped back in his chair. Surgical assistance was imme. diately procured, but the vital spark was fled. IRELAND. (FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT.) DUBLIN, APRIL 19. Mr. O'CONNELL—PUBLIC NIRETING.—ThiS day an ad journed meeting of Mr. O'Connell's constituents assembled at the Corn-exchange to receive the report of the Committee, appointed to consider the propriety of establishing a Central Board of Registration; no meeting having taken place yes terday, on account of it being the first day of term, and Mr. O'Connell being anxious to attend the opening of the Courts. At two o'clock the chair was taken by Richard Barnett, Esq. The Committee then brought up the following Report : That the Central Board of Registration for Ireland is in stituted for the following purposes exclusively :- Ist. To attend to and promote by all legal arid constitu tional means the extension of the suffrage and the due regis tration of persons belonging to the Liberal interest in the va rious localities in Ireland. 2d. To prevent the registration of false and fictitious votes in the interest of the enemies of Ireland. 3d. To establish in each county, city, and borough in Ire land, a local club or society to carry into effect the purposes of this Board. 4th. To extinguish by all means in their po - ,s , !r all local jealousies and the clashing of the views of persons who may differ as to the best mode of increasing the Liberal strength in the various constituencies. 6th. To collect subscriptions to enable this Board to carry into effect the general superintendence of the registry in Ire land in the manner above specified. The Central Board of Registration will be constituted as 6th. That this Board shall consist of all such persons as shall subscribe annually any sum not less than 11., and shall be proposed by one member and seconded by another. 7th. That the business of the Board be conducted by a standing Committee of 21 persons, to be elected in a manner hereafter provided for, and to report to the Board the amount of subscriptions paid in, and the general proceedings of the Committee. Bth. That the General Board do meet at least once a month to receive such report, and to direct the general tusiness of the registration. 9th: That there be a President of the Committee, to be elected annually, with power to name a deputy to preside in his inevitable absence only. 10th. That Mr. T. M. Ray be appointed Secretary to the Board and Committee. 11th. That two Inspectors be appointed annually to report to the Committee all matters of importance to the purposes o the Board, and to carry into practical effect the instructions ol the Committee. 12th. That Laurence Finn, Esq., be requested to act as Treasurer, and be authorised to pay all orders igned by three members of the Committee. 13th. That accurate accounts of all receipts and disburse ments be laid before the Committee at each meeting. 14th. That the gentlemen named in the former Committee on the 16th instant be appointed as a Provisional Committee, to direct the business of the Board until the Acting Commit tee shall be elected ;and that they report to the next meeting of the Board the most eligible mode of electing such Acting Committees. The subjoined sums were then handed in by Mr. O'Connell upon the part of himself and family : Daniel O'Connell, M.P. £lo 0 0 Maurice O'Connell, M.P. Morgan O'Connell, M. P. 5 0 0 John O'Connell, M.P.

He was rejoiced at the formation of a body that would take the direction and guidance of the Liberal registra tion, and watch the Tories, who were eternally active to add to their strength. The Tory party has the incentive of a love of plunder to urge them to activity ; but the people, who only sought justice, could not be induced to be so continuously active without the aid and co-operation of a Society in which they could place confidence. Now, however, they had ob tained that desideratum, and he had the most sanguine hopes of good arising from it. He proceeded to comment upon the fear betrayed in the Mail and other Tory journals of the Queen coming to Ireland. It was plain they dreaded that she should come in contact with a loyal and warm-hearted people, lest she should learn to love them too much. If she would come (and he had reason to hope that before the close of the sum mer we would be cheered by the presence of our lovely Sove reign), she would know what it was to be beloved by a whole nation. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman concluded by moving the adoption of the Report. The motion was seconded by Mr. APKENNER, and passed unanimously. Mr. DIXON, Q. C., then moved that Mr. O'Connell should elected President of the Committee of the Central Board. He did not think it necessary to preface his motion by one word of remark. Mr. CADWALADER WADDY seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. Mr. O'CONNELL expressed his willingness to accept the office, for which be thanked them, and moved that in his ab sence Mr. Peter Purcell should act as Vice-President. The appointment was fisted unanimously. Mr. PURCELL returned thanks. Several gentlemen handed in their subscriptions, and be came members. Mr. O'Connell will attend a great anti-slavery meeting at the Rotunda on Saturday. TITHE AFFIIAT.—A serious riot ensuing out of an attempt to serve tithe processes, took place at the farm of Timolin, on Monday. Early upon that day, Captain Mosse, accompanied by two bailiffs, entered the farm and took into custody, a man named Darby Neil, for an arrear of tithes. There was no at tempt at rescue upon the part of the people, but Neil's ser vant unfortunately struck one of the bailiffs with a stick, upon which, the latter fired a pistol at his assailant. The ball missed its object, but unfortunately wounded a man who had taken no part in the affair. A confused rumour that a man had been shot by tithe bailiff,l and another arrested instantly, got abroad, and created a terrible sensation among the people. The bailiff who shot the man, had run off, but the crowd met the other bailiff and Captain Mosse, , leading off the prisoner. A stone was thrown, probably at Captain Mosse, which struck Neil upon the face, and cut him severely. A riot ensued, in which Captain Mosse was so severely injured, that he was car ried from the ground lifeless. Whether lie has been yet de clared out of danger, I have not learned. The first thing that will strike every one in this affair, is the imprudence of Captain Mosse in choosing a crowded market, to make a pri_ sonar on so obnoxious a claim, as the tithe impost. Nobody can avoid regretting that such an unfortunate collision should have taken place, but it surely supplies another argument for the necessity of a speedy arrangement of a question which has caused so much bloodshed and disorganization. In the Equity Exchequer, which opened yesterday, there were several tithe cases on, so that the parsons betray no falling off in their zeal to uphold the revenues of the Establishment. At the opening of the Court of Chancery yesterday, seven teen young gentlemen were sworn in as barristers before the Lord Chancellor, of whom twelve were Protestants and five Catholics. Mrs. Nesbitt has arrived in Dublin, and will appear at the Theatre Royal on Monday night, in Sheridan Knowles' comedy of the Love Chase. A Military Court of Inquiry is at present sitting in Kil kenny, upon two officers of the 99th Regiment, charged with an unmanly and unmilitary attack upon two young girls, and a very shabby defence of it afterwards. The result is expected with considerable anxiety. Pierce Mahoney, Esq., late M. P. for Kinsale, is canvassing the borough of Drogheda, in the event of Sir William Somer ville being raised to the peerage, of which there is little doubt. A Mr. Dixon, an English gentleman, is also in the field. The Rev. Mr. O'Malley, famous for his advocacy of a Poor-law, has addressed a letter to Mr. Staunton, proprietor of the Morning Itzgister, in which he undertakes to show the fallacy of Mr. OTonnell's views upon the subject of the Mi nisterial Bill. He contends that the present mode of relief, as given by the farmers to the poor, is more expensive upon them than a tax, since they would turn the corn and potatoes they give them into money ; and they now have the entire support of them, vvhet eas the Bill would throw some of it upon th• landlords. LORD BANDON.S TEN&NTRY.—As I stated in my last Lord Bandon is taking proceeding s to eject a great number of his tenantry from land which they and their progenitors have oc cupied for more than a century. Under some obsolete sta tute, he was able to obtain from the magistrates a precept, enabling him to eject them summarily, if a jury would decide that they had obtained possession by the " strong hand." Mr. Dogherty, the Agent of Lord Bandon, appeared with a she riff's return for a jury, which he deliberately filled with the names as he chose (the Sheriff's name being signed to the blank form in his possession). The array was, of course, under the circumstances, challenged, and the magistrates at once determined upon quashing it. Thus the matter stands at present, the unfair attempt to pack a jury having been defeated. EXTRAORDINARY PRO CREDINOS.—On the subject of the ex traordinary proceedings adopted by his Lordship, we supply some further particulars from the Southern Reporter. "We referred on Saturday,'' says our Contemporary, the substance of whose observations we subjoin--" we referred on Saturday to the novel and extraordinary legal procedure which we un derstood was about to be adopted on the part of the Earl of Bandon, in reference to the tenantry of his Lordship on an ex t,nsive tract of land, called Kinneagh, part of his estates, situate about ten males to the west of the tovvn of ii4ndp n, Several months ago, and before the meeting of Parliam ent, 0, • petition of the tenantry, addressed to the Noble Lord, and other documents, appeared in this journal, from which the fol lowing facts were collected : " The present tenants and their progenitors had occupied the land for upwards of a century under the Gillman faintly, the immediate tenants of Lord Bandon and his ancestors. The leases expired last year, and a determination was an nounced to clear the land of the whole population, men, women, and children, amounting to several hundreds. It was stated by those who professed to speak the sentiments of the Noble Lord, that he had resolved not to let any lands thenceforward to Roman Catholics, and this was the cause assigned for the proposed expulsion of the tenantry in question. When the circumstances were originally commu nicated to us by three County Magistrates, it was mentioned that a summary process would be resorted to for the expulsion of the tenant r y, an d th a t it wou ld b e e ff 2cte d b y a mig i stra t c ti warrant, which would be executed by a militiry and police force. Such a mode of removing tenants in possession was unheard of. We controverted its legality, and remonstrated. under any circumstances, against turning hundreds of wretched creatures adrift on the country, the inclement winter season then approaching. The threatened proceedings were then suspended, aed early in the present session, when Lord Mul grave made his triumphant vindication in Parliament of his administration of the affairs of this country, his allusion to the difficulty of preserving the public peace when tenants were removed from the estate of a Noble Lord, because of their re ligion, was met by Lord Bandon's assertion that they were in comfortable possession. The Noble Lord omitted to add that it was intended to remove them in March ; and that, by die most extraordinary procedure ever resorted to for such A purpose. _ _ . . Those tenants and their progenitors had been in possession for upwards of a century ; the farina had been improved, an d the rents regu'arly paid. These were circumstances that in England would have entitled the tenants to renewed tenures ai a matter of course. Considerations of fair dealing, equity and justice govern the transactions and contracts Letween Lana lord and Tenant in the sister country. In the present instance, a possession of upwards of a century had no weight in favour og . a numercus improving tenantry paying their rents regulariy'- The determination to expel them was formed, and a preliminary attempt made on Saturday_to carry it into effect under the most. extraordinary circumstances. There are two English statutes of Richard the 2d, and ano ther of Henry the 6th, giving a summary jurisdiction to Magis trates, in cases of forcible entry into lands, to restore the pos session. These statutes are said to have been extended to Ire land by the Bth of Edward the 4th. No proceeding on those obsolete statutes was ever heard of in this country, until they were resorted to by the legal advisers of Lord Bandon, to at. ford summary means of expelling a numerous and meritorious tenantry after the possession of a century. Such is the state of the facts with rezpect to Lord Bandon 's tenantry on Kinneagh up to this period. After a possession of a century they are to be expelled, obsolete Acts of Parlia - • silent, never brought into operation in this country that we' :lave heard of, resorted to in order to effect the process in is summary manner, and the Assessor and Jury both nominate& by the law agent of their noble adversary. It is due to * 0 Magistrates who presided to state that their conduct and de . meanour were strictly imparti a l. Th ere gent l emen d ec l a red more than once from the Bench on Saturday that they were forced—that they were coerced—to take a past in this pro ceeding, ; that they regarded it as one dangerous to the peace' of the country; but that they were conc l u d e d b y t h e law, arict could not avoid issuing the Precept. But in reference to the use which was made •f it—seeing what they did see —seeing the attorney of one party, and that party a Peer of the rearec, armed virtually with a power of nominating the Jury which was to decide a question between the Peer and poor and lowly tenants of his own, they refused to sanction such a monstrous perversion of justice, and declined to try a case disfigured with so many circumstances of' palpable wrong-doing. Under the compulsion, however, by which they found themselves first ; obliged to act, they did not find themselves at liberty to with' draw from further int er f erence , an d have accordingly Friday next for another hearing, a new precept to be iii th'e meantime issued to the Sheriff. THE POOR LAW BILL—MEETING AT THE CORN EXCHANGE. In reference to the proceedings of the meeting beld last Tuesday at the Corn Exchange, of whi c h a report ap peared yesterday in our colu mns , the Pilot say s —" We have here striking evidences of th e energy o f t h e Lib erator, and of his unabated ardour f or o ld I re l an d.

Mr. O'Connell recapitulated all his objectic,ns to the principle a nd details of the measure. The speech of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman was certainly an eloquent ( and the great majority' of the meeting felt it was a convincing) expose of the absurdi ties and incongruities of the Bill." There is a rumour afloat which, as it has gained consider able circulation, we feel bound to allude to—it is to the effect that a Stipendiary Magistrate is about to be inflicted on our pity. We have not time to-day to allude to this affair as its importance demands ; but we cannot help saying that we have , heard of nothing for a long time that smells so rankly of job bing.— Watesford Chronicle.

TURNIPS, Spinach, Onions for drawing, Salads of a ll kin"' Leeks, &c., should be sown also. ASPARAGUS BERRIES, sow broad cast, in a good open s ituatiotl; RED BEET A ND MANGEL WURZEL—For general crop, thi may he sown in drill s , an d w h en t h ey come up too thick, take them out carefully t o pl ant. Th e ground for these, as w ell as Carrots and Parsnips, must he well digged. Propagate Pot Herbs by slips and cuttings. Prepare succession ridges for planting out Cucumbr rs• Sow out-of-door Annuals in places where they are to remain' Sow, also, Perennials, Biennials, &c. Sow S EA - KALE.—Management the same as Asparugus. Shift tender Annuals from small to large pots. Pot those which are forward enough, and have not been taken from th e seed-pot. Even those destined ultimately fur the border should be potted. Sow tree and shrub seeds, kernels, &c., for stocks. GRAFTING.—CompIete without delay, whether Roses, baraf shrubs, fruit trees, or other subjects. Ros Ell may be checked in their bloo m by removal ; but the' better way to throw them later, for succession of bloom, is n or to cut them back, until all the upper buds have shot half eru inch or an inch. The lower buds will not have come forwarth ; and by cutting down, as we have before described, to one ott two lower eyes, they will be a fortnight or three weeks latex than those cut a month ago. AURICL'LAS require great care : under hand-glasses they" will get their half opening blossoms set hard, unless they ar e ' well protected from cold.
